Use these facial oils for all your skin woes

Facial oils have been a part of beauty regimes since ancient times. Recently there has been resurgence in the use, demand and popularity of facial oils for beauty purposes, and for good reason too. Facial oils are an integral part of skin care regimen and are the solution to most of your skin woes. We decode for you the best facial oil according to your skin type.

For acne-prone skin

Acne and breakouts are one of the most persistent skin problems all women face. And there is often a belief that facial oils can aggravate acne and sebum formation in the skin. This isn’t true. If you pick the right oil, it can actually work to soothe your skin and and prevent blemishes rather than causing acne and blackheads. Neem oil is best suited for acne prone skin and can help curb breakouts as it has antifungal and antibacterial properties. Opt for beauty products containing neem oil if you have acne prone skin.

For dry skin

Though all oils have a moisturizing effect on dry skin, we suggest opt for rose, plum, coconut and camelina oils to increase elasticity and hydration in your skin. These oils are lightweight and penetrate into your skin thus moisturizing, repairing and boosting it in the process.

For aging skin

Aging skin is characterized with the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. As we age, our skin loses collagen and elasticin which leads to occurrence of flaky skin, wrinkles and fine lines. Use products laden with avocado, pomegranate and sea buckthorn oils to reduce signs of aging and restore that plump and smooth look to your skin.

For discoloured and dull skin

Excessive pollution, stress, etc. takes a toll on our skin and often leave it dull and blemished. Address dull skin and restore radiance by using rosehip seed oil on your face and body. This oil is loaded with vitamin C and vitamin A and has been tested to help fade discolouration and pigmentation as well as reverse sun damage and lighten dark spots. Cold pressed Moroccan Argan oils are also packed with antioxidants and work hard to replenish your skin, boost the skin tone, tackle the scars and leave you with glowing ,smooth skin.
